Compared to a light test last week, steers under 600 lbs and heifers under 550 lbs 2.00 to 6.00 higher, steer 600 to 800 lbs and heifers 550 to 750 lbs 5.00 to 10.00 higher, steers over 800 lbs had few comparisons last week, heifers over 750 lbs not well tested . Demand good to very good, supply moderate to heavy. The offering was mostly weaned calves with several load lots. The quality was above average with several consignments of reputation cattle.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
